    They are manufacturer team, the money isn't problem. I bet if they can, they could hire Ogier into the team, but they simply can't provide the proper car for challenging the titles.

    I didnt say it was a problem, just a waste, paying a driver €Millions when the car isnt good enough.

    It isn't the first time a ferry has been integral to an event.

    On the 1989 Autoglass Tour of Britain cars competed on an autotest at Liverpool's Albert Dock and then booked into parc-fermé in the Albert Dock car park. The cars were then transported under parc-fermé conditions on the ferry to Ireland for the rest of the event. Service crews mostly went on the boat, drivers & co-drivers mostly flew, apart from David Llewellin who spent a while chatting to us as we marshalled the parc-fermé.

    On the 1980 Manx National Rally, scrutineering was held in the Heysham ferry terminal car assembly area before the cars were loaded onto the boat for the voyage to the Isle of Man. Signing-on and the other documentation formalities took place on the ferry crossing.

    Ferries were, of course, also integral to the London-Sydney and London-Mexico City marathons.

    That brought back memories ! I went to that auto test at the Albert Dock and still have the photos including of me with Derek Bell. I didnt know they went from there to Ireland though.
